Chapter 217 Sensible, Obedient, and Still Young (Cheng Yubai)
Seeing that she didn't answer, Cheng Yubai changed his guess. Could it be that Mu Mu was one of the two people ahead of him?

Before she could even begin to feel relieved, Shen Zhaoyi let out a small sigh.

"Little brother, there really is one!"

Cheng Yubai's expression stiffened slightly, but quickly returned to normal. "You really haven't been idle at all."

Shen Zhaoyi seemed oblivious to his sarcastic tone and returned a big smile.

"Thanks for the compliment."

Even though Cheng Yubai was prepared, his carefree attitude left him feeling somewhat powerless.

He took a deep breath, and his eyes darkened.

"It seems you like him very much?"

"Sensible and obedient, it's hard not to like him~" Shen Zhaoyi looked Cheng Yubai up and down and continued to fuel the fire, "And he's young too."

"How young?"

"College Students."

Cheng Yubai was surprised that this was actually a younger brother he had found. "You really have the heart to do that."

"The other person is an adult, okay?"

Faced with Shen Zhaoyi's protest, he finally couldn't help but sneer and pour cold water on her enthusiasm without any mercy: "Aren't you afraid that they're after your money?"

"It's okay, I have plenty of money."

This is true.

In any case, it's all about getting what you need. What you're after isn't important; what matters is that you have the thing yourself.

Seeing her like this, Cheng Yubai knew that saying more would be pointless.

Originally, it was thought that given Shen Zhaoyi's personality, the frequency of new people appearing around her wouldn't be high, but after only a week away, she came back with new members.

It seems this path is much more difficult than I imagined.

Forget about driving them all away; the most urgent task now is to temporarily prevent any other person from taking over.

Don't you like spending money?
Let's find a place and spend all our money at once to solve the problem at its root.

She had already stepped under the umbrella; as for others, let them get soaked however they wanted, as long as they couldn't see Shen Zhaoyi's umbrella.

Cheng Yubai has always been a person with his own ideas, and once he decided on this idea, he quickly came up with a solution.

After straightening his clothes, he stood up and reached out to the woman sitting in front of him.

"Shall I take you somewhere?"

Shen Zhaoyi crossed her arms, making no further move, but instead looked up and asked, "Where are we going?"

When she learned it was a laboratory, she refused without hesitation.

I already said last time that I didn't want to go, why are you bringing it up again?

What's wrong with these two? They just want to be hands-off managers. They've already paid the money, yet they still insist on having her come to "inspect the work."

Cheng Yubai knew she was unwilling, but it didn't matter; the tempting conditions hadn't been revealed yet.

He took out his phone, tapped the screen a few times, and finally brought up a chat history.

The contact person's name is Director Zhao.

He was that Mediterranean man at the medical dinner.

His few words revealed his anger, clearly treating Cheng Yubai as an emotional outlet.

Shen Zhaoyi remembered him; he was a mild-tempered and honest person.

So, what happened to make him so irritable?

Cheng Yubai took the phone back with a look of helplessness and complained, "The lab rented a temporary site in the suburbs to save costs."

"Although it doesn't matter where it is, as long as all procedures are followed according to regulations, including the disposal of waste and garbage."

“But every time we sealed it up and transported it out, the old ladies in the neighborhood started gossiping, saying that we were conducting illegal experiments and trying to harm their village.”

"That's why they're always blocking the outside with their men."

Shen Zhaoyi was speechless. What era is this...? "Didn't you call the police?"

Cheng Yubai shook his head. He had reported it, but it was of no use.

Because the project was not classified, protection could not be obtained, and the villagers did not have any substantial conflict with them.

Director Zhao tried to negotiate with them privately a few times, but he was always annoyed and returned home saying that those people couldn't understand what he was saying at all, and the young people in the lab suffered a lot as a result.

As a result, the project's progress slowed down considerably.

"Director Zhao already has thinning hair, and these past few days he's been so worried he's almost bald."

Ultimately, it all comes down to choosing the wrong location.

Shen Zhaoyi frowned: "Didn't I say before that there was plenty of money? Why are you saving money here?"

Cheng Yubai certainly remembered those words, but Director Zhao only took on this project when he was about to retire, fearing that Ms. Shen might feel the expenses were too high and eventually withdraw her investment.

They always try to save money wherever possible and spend it wisely.

The intention was good, but Shen Zhaoyi felt it was unnecessary.

Others might not know, but Cheng Yubai was certainly aware of her own strength. She looked directly at him and asked, "Didn't you try to persuade me?"

"We tried to persuade him, but Director Zhao wouldn't listen."

Shen Zhaoyi only trusted these words about 50%.

And who else can Cheng Yubai persuade?
But at the same time, she guessed his purpose for coming today, "So you want me to go over and persuade him?"

"Yes and no." Cheng Yubai mimicked her gesture, tapping the table with his fingers. "I think as an investor, your involvement would definitely be more effective than ours."

"Why not move the lab to a different location so the rest of the project team can be less disturbed by outside interference and achieve results sooner, so you can see the benefits too?"

That last sentence hits the nail on the head.

Shen Zhaoyi was only thinking about throwing money in to get cashback, but she didn't mention that there would be any returns after the project was successful.
Of course, it's possible that she just didn't listen...

It has to be said that Cheng Yubai is the one who understands Shen Zhaoyi best in some aspects.

People who had no idea just now immediately changed their minds.

"Send me your location, and I'll make time to go there tomorrow."

Although he hadn't expected her to come along in the first place, Cheng Yubai still asked, as a formality, "Why not today?"

"I have something to do today," Shen Zhaoyi said, waving her phone. "I need to go to the hospital."

I saw a message from Mumu when I went downstairs just now.

He was still waiting outside the ward; the old lady was still unconscious and showed no signs of waking up.

Perhaps it was because this scene was so familiar that Shen Zhaoyi saw a reflection of herself from back then in Mu Mu.

But at that time, she had no one around to help her.

So, going there is a way to make up for the regret.

When Cheng Yubai heard this place, he subconsciously thought she was sick.

Upon learning that they were visiting an elder, he immediately adopted a more respectful attitude, asking, "Would you like me to come with you?"

Shen Zhaoyi rolled her eyes.

"You should go and show concern for Director Zhao instead of trying to curry favor with him here."

Cheng Yubai was already used to being disliked by her and was not affected at all. Out of a doctor's habit, he asked what illness she had before leaving.

Actually, I only heard the gist of it last night. I'm not a professional, so I only remembered a few keywords.

Meningioma, memory loss, cerebral hemorrhage, etc.

And then there's the situation this morning where he hasn't woken up after being resuscitated.

Although their areas of expertise are different, Cheng Yubai was aware of the risks of postoperative complications. His expression turned slightly serious: "Director Zhao used to be an authority in neurosurgery. You can bring your medical records with you tomorrow so he can take a look."

Shen Zhaoyi hadn't expected it to be such a coincidence.

It seems I really need to visit this lab.

Whether it's out of humanitarianism or something else, it's always good to give the elderly a better chance of survival.
